Abstract
Lambs quarter (LQ) is currently used for immunotherapy at Kaiser Permanente (KP) San Francisco (SF). Russian thistle (thistle) is in the same Chenopodioiddeae subfamily and is thought to provide similar coverage with additional unique antigens. While it is known that cross-reactivity exists within the Chenopodioiddeae subfamily, it has been suggested that there is also cross-reactivity to pigweed (Atriplex “saltbush” genus), another member of the Amaranthaceae family. The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the incidence of sensitization to thistle, LQ and pigweed in SF.
